Customs & Declarations

Proper customs declarations ensure smooth delivery. Reputable sellers declare reasonable values to avoid excessive duties while providing sufficient documentation for clearance. Undervalued declarations risk seizure; overvalued declarations trigger unnecessary taxes.

Express couriers handle customs more reliably than postal services due to established broker relationships. For high-value orders, always choose express shipping with insurance to protect against seizure or damage.
